Updated: Valve Responds To TEAM FORTRESS 2 And CS:GO Source Code Leak
UPDATED: The Twitter account for CS:GO has responded to the news of the source code leak, reassuring players about the safety of playing the FPS, especially on official servers.
Valve has yet to comment on the events transpiring, but the source code for Team Fortress 2 and CS:GO has leaked online, and there is the possibility that you could get malware through Remote Code Execution if you’re playing multiplayer online.
Steam Database shared the news about the leak.
And Heavy Update Out Yet notified players about the malware threat through the servers.
Again, there is no official word on what’s happening, but to be safe, it’s advisable to avoid playing these two Valve games, and maybe any Valve games, online until an announcement has been made or an explanation of events.
If you’re interested in reading through the community responses, Twitter users are very active right now and #Valve is trending.
There are accusations being thrown around and a lot of rumor, but we’ll wait for Valve before updating the story with an authoritative overview of the situation.
